Abstract

In the context of activity-based transport simulation models, rescheduling of daily activities and associated travel in response to unforeseen events such as traffic congestion is receiving increasing attention. This paper describes the results of a stated adaptation experiment on how individuals adapt their schedules when faced with delay. In the web-based experiment, respondents indicated their response to a number of hypothetical situations in which the available time for a planned activity was reduced. Mixed logit models were estimated for every considered activity, taking into account the amount of delay, attributes of the activity and socio-economic variables.
